The 'Swarm' drone system, which is capable of target identification using artificial intelligence- powered software and equipped with state-of-the-art technology, is being inducted into the Mechanized Forces of the Indian Army.
The 'Swarm' drone consists of multiple drones controlled from a single station, which can be operated using 'algorithms' to perform various tasks, including surveillance. The new system will give it an edge in meeting future security challenges.
Let us tell you that China has also mastered AI and swarm-drone technology. This is the reason why the Indian Army is preparing to give this technology first to its Mechanized Forces deployed on the LAC adjoining Eastern Ladakh.
How will these drones work ?
Swarm Drone System consists of a large number of such aerial- vehicles, which are equipped with Artificial-Intelligence (AI). Due to AI technology, all these aerial vehicles (drone) not only stay in touch with the control center but are also interconnected. Due to the swarming algorithm of AI, all these drones share their responsibility themselves. Apart from this, they also hit or target by going to the search area without colliding with each other.
With AI-enabled Automatic Target Recognition (ATR), the drone itself recognizes tanks, vehicles and soldiers and informs the control station. It does not make the mistake of missing any enemy target.
